April kidnapped and then ran away
with pretty Laura Hahn, OF Baums-
town, had been located in one Of the
Western States. On Saturday night
Leon Reifsnyder, q resident of Three

stranger arrived st his place. having
with him a young girl apparently
about IA years of aRe.
Mr.. Reifspyder said all he could
learn from the man was that he was
from Baumstown, this county, but he
always avoided saying anything re-
garding his former residence or why he
come West. 1t was at once suspected
that the stranger was none other than
the long. looked for wife deserter and
eloper, Kerper. Word was at once
telegraphed to the authorities ut Three
Rivers to take the man into custody,
which was promptly done, and he will
be brought home as soon as the young
child wife Ia In condition to be taken
along, which will not be for several
days.
Laura, who WAS beautiful brunette,
was hut IA years old when Kerper de

left for the far West, without even Gre
Ating any suspicion of being In love
with the child. Mrs. Kerper was d
half.sister to Laura's mother, and Mrs.
Kerper being an invalid. the girl was
sent to their residence TO assist in doing
the house ork, and, while there, the
runaway was planned and successfully
carried out. Mrs. Kerper, upon learn

The polls for the special election did
not open In this city yesterday In many
instances until 0 O'CLOCK, and very few
votes were cast during the morning.
Up 70 noon 1t IN scarcely probable that
there were 900 votes cast In the entire

was shown and the votes commenced

been employed - Ii usual st clections,
there 10 NO doubt bat there could have
bsen OF least 1000 more votes polled
and the Bu ,cass of the movement &C.

they trusted TO their Deighbors to do
that which they should have made 1t a

was no disturbance of any account, and
